Hear a bull elk bugle across a New Zealand valley and you'll never forget it. We hunt heavy-antlered wapiti bulls through the autumn roar on our private high country — glassing the tops and slipping in close for the shot. Trophy hunting from $6,000; the very largest premium bulls are graded on request (POA). Day rates cover accommodation, main meals and guiding ($500 per hunter / $250 per non-hunter, per day). A $1,000 reserve holds your dates — request this season's open windows and a Dispatch advisor takes care of the rest.

From the first phone call to the flight home, these folks were dialed in. The Wapiti Elk country in South Island is everything they said it would be. Professional guides, honest advice, and a hunt I'll be telling stories about for years.
Booked my Wapiti Elk hunt through Dispatch and it was flawless start to finish. The advisor was honest about the terrain and fitness in South Island, and everything they promised showed up exactly as described. My guide knew the country cold. Can't recommend it enough.
